This square is my submission as the February square in the Designers Showcase Sampler sponsored by Melinda Miller.

Melinda Miller from MoCrochet and Melinda Miller Designs on Ravelry is hosting a unique CAL for 2013. This year we will crochet a Designer Showcase Sampler. It will be comprised of twelve – 12” afghan blocks that are designed by various designers. Each month a mystery Designer will be revealed and you will get to know her and her designs. At the end of the year, you will have enough blocks to make your very own Designer Showcase Afghan to keep for yourself or to give away.

I have also included a video link in the pattern to help those unfamiliar with some of the techniques early in the pattern. After creating this video I realized that the square needed an additional round inserted before the final two rounds to make the square 12x12 so you can only follow the video up to round 8. Then you must refer to the pattern for the completed square. However the techniques at the end of the video still match up with the techniques used in the pattern. The important rounds that are in the video are the early rounds.

Happy Crocheting!
